New Doctrine...

<< < (3/6) > >>

cjwood:
i believe the only new "revelation" contained in the new testament was what peter and paul were shown regarding the bringing in of the nations (gentiles) also into the kingdom of God.  then after Christ's explanation of how it was expedient for Him to go away so that the Comforter, the very Spirit of God, would come and reside within our hearts.  thereby we have the same Spirit which Jesus had within Him during his lifetime on earth.  that was new because in the old testament the Spirit of God only rested on those whom it was ordained to be so.  the Holy Spirit of God was never available to come and reside within the hearts of those who believed God and were faithful.  it was not available until after Christ had ascended after His resurrection. 

also remember Jesus gave many examples of the higher expectations for the believers/disciples.  like going a step beyond the old law requirements.  a new code of living.  these are discussed in matthew chapters 5-7.  so the exhortations of Jesus were new revelations to those who heard. 

i don't know if any of this helps you paulfisher.

--- Quote from: thewatchman on February 20, 2013, 04:54:56 AM ---Even if all truth was taught, which I do not believe as the patriarchs of old looked forward to this time, so there should be some new revelation as there is the former rain to establish the seed and the latter to bring in the harvest, much of it has been forgotten. So there are plenty of new things to learn. IMO  8)

The word is the same ,yesterday today and tomorrow "I the Lord change not" was not the fulfillment in Christ complete "it is finished ?

paulfisher:
2Ti 3:16  "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:"

Therefore, Scripture is living.

Doctrine is a position or policy being taught. The Letters found in the New Testament were written by their Authors to address issues relevant to the saints who received them, YET, they became Scriptures for all future generations of mankind, YET, no one will understand the messages found in them without the Holy Spirit.

There is perhaps some "new" doctrine mentioned although only the Holy Spirit can let us know for sure. It's not really important is it? I believe I was questioning to myself, wondering if the Authors would be inspired to mention doctrine not previously taught in person. I was just curious about that possibility and if any of the Authors actually said something to the effect of: "This is new doctrine" or "I have never mentioned this before" or something like that.

If the Authors never said anything like this then no "new" doctrine was being taught.

The doctrine found there will always be "new" for the called and especially the chosen... 

Thank you all.
Paul

Ian 155:
1Jn 1:3  That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

we no longer rely on teachers rather the Holy Spirit guiding us /steering us in a direction of his choosing.


Interestingly Revelation 2 speaks of the over comer being shewed the Hidden Manna

The only new doctrine is that of the church  :'(

Rhys 🕊:
Concerning this. I'm sure this is all we need:

John 14:26  But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.

I feel bringing to remembrance says a lot that causes real change that lasts when directed by His Spirit. That's the way God seems to work in me.

Blessings

Rhys
